Default best way to clean a tank?

My room mate and I bought two fishtanks from a garage sale and we not sure how clean they are what has previously been in them. What is the best way to clean them without risking the future fish in that tank. Suggestions?

hot water and bleach solution, make sure u rinse it out good also using like the blue polypads on filters to scrub inside and a razor works good.

And copious amounts of water conditioner to neutralize any residual bleach.
